Where The Wild Things Are Clip Not Real?

Just a couple days ago we posted a clip from Where The Wild Things Are directed by Spike Jonze. Slashfilm caught up with Jonze to hear whether or not the clip was actually from the film or some kind of elaborate hoax by some insanely talented fanboys.

"that was a very early test with the sole purpose of just getting some footage to Ben our vfx (visual effects) supervisor to see if our vfx plan for the faces would work. The clip doesn’t look or feel anything like the movie, the Wild Thing suit is a very early cringy prototype, and the boy is a friend of ours Griffin who we had used in a Yeah Yeah Yeahs video we shot a few weeks before. We love him, but he is not in the actually film… Oh and that is not a wolf suit, its a lamb suit we bought on the internet. Talk to you later…“

The film has been pushed back until 2009 and the word on the street is that Warner Bros. are not pleased with the final product. I think what they wanted was a film for little kids to be able to go and see like Chronicles of Narnia. But to be honest I think the adult look is the way to go. If everything from said clip is at least close to what the film looks like you can count me in.
